The film was written by and stars Utah writer-actor Steven C. Stewart, who also
appears in What Is
It? He died of complications from cerebral palsy in
2001, only one month after
principal filming wrapped.

Glover has said that the script was in the style of a 1970s
made-for-TV movie, and said in an online chat that "It's an
autobiographical, psycho-sexual,
fantastical retelling of [Stewart's] point-of-view of life." Aside
from the opening and closing scenes that were filmed in a nursing
home, It is Fine. Everything is Fine! was shot entirely at
David Brother's sound
stage in Salt
Lake City, Utah. Glover has
stated that it is "probably the best film [he'll] ever work on in
[his] entire career."[1]

This film premiered at the Egyptian Theater in Park City, Utah
on January 23, 2007 for the Midnight screening as an official
selection of the 2007 Sundance Film Festival. Crispin Glover and
David Brothers were in attendance, as well as many of the cast and
crew. Glover and Brothers introduced the film and conducted a
lengthy question and answer period after the film.
